6. Remove from refrigerator and gently get it onto a plate or platter.

If you don't have microwave, no worries you can still use double boiler method to melt the chocolate..

4. Keep stirring the chocolate and gradually it will start melting.

NOTE - Kindly check that your utensils or moulds do not contain any moisture as it affects the shine of the chocolates.
